Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based diagnostic assays. More specifically, the present invention provides a PCR based method for detecting chronic gastritis causing bacteria, namely Helicobacter pylori, in a stool sample.
- the present invention is based on the use of oligonucleotide primers and probes specific to the H. pylori 23S rRNA gene.
- H. pylori is a gram-negative and microaerophilic bacterium, which causes chronic gastritis. It is estimated that about half of the world's population are infected with this bacterium. Most of the H. pylori infected individuals are asymptomatic despite gastritis but a minority will develop severe sequelae. H. pylori is the key factor in the development of duodenal or gastric ulcers, and the most common single risk factor for non-cardia gastric cancer. The successful eradication of H.
- H. pylori infection leads to healing of peptic ulcer disease (Ford et al, 2003) and in long-term relief of dyspeptic symptoms even in some patients without ulcers (Ford et al., 2004).
- Eradication therapy of H. pylori infection is also recommended as the first-line treatment for low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and on the basis of epidemiological studies successful H. pylori eradication therapy may lead to a decreased number of gastric cancer cases (Kosunen et al, 2011; Chey and Wong, 2007).
- Diagnostic methods for the detection of H. pylori infection can be divided into invasive (gastroscopy is required) and non-invasive methods. Although several methods give highly accurate results, there is not a single gold standard for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection but the selection of the methods depends on the clinical situation and if there is otherwise a need for gastroscopy. According to the test-and treat strategy, patients with a low risk for gastric cancer can be tested for H. pylori with non-invasive methods and treated if H. pylori is detected.
- non-invasive diagnostic methods such as urea breath tests and stool antigen tests, in general show highly accurate detection rates, these methods do not give any information on the antimicrobial susceptibility of the infecting isolate of H. pylori.
- antimicrobial susceptibility testing results are usually not available in all positive cases due to the low sensitivity of culture.
- Eradication therapy of H. pylori usually consists of two different antimicrobial agents and a proton pump inhibitor. Clarithromycin is an important component of the classical triple therapy and in the case of clarithromycin resistant H . pylori, the clarithromycin-based regimen results in eradication failure in the vast majority of the cases (Fischbach and Evans, 2007).
- PCR assays for detection of H. pylori directed to other target genes than the 23S rRNA gene are disclosed in the following publications: Falsafi et al., 2009; Singh et al., 2008; Monteiro et al., 2001; Makristathis et al., 1998; Mishra et al, 2008; and Burucoa et al., 1999.
- oligonucleotide sequences that enable reliable species-specific amplification, detection and quantification. It is of utmost importance that a given set of oligonucleotides, designed to amplify H. pylori, does not cross-react with DNA originating from any other species possibly present in a sample.
- Finding such sequences can be far from trivial, at least for the following reasons: 1) Many of the species are relatively closely related, making it challenging to locate sequences that are unique for each species; 2) Pathogen strains originating from a single species can be genetically diverged, making it difficult to locate sequences that would enable equally efficient amplification of all strains within a species; 3)
- the sample may contain PCR inhibitors or as in this case the sample contains mainly fragmented target DNA, since H. pylori typically thrives in gastric mucosa and will very likely die and deteriorate in large intestine.
- effective amplification of pathogen DNA from a stool sample requires oligonucleotide design enabling high PCR efficiency (optimally as close to 100% as possible).
- the present invention provides at least the following major advantages: the difference of Tm of outer and inner primers is optimized to achieve simpler reaction routines, e.g. the nested PCR reaction of the present invention can be performed in a single vessel.
- Rimbara et al, 2005, and Noguchi et al., 2007, disclose methods where nested PCR is performed sequentially in two separate reactions.
- the robustness of the PCR reaction of the present invention is also on the level that there is no need to isolate and purify the DNA from a stool sample by phenol extraction or sample homogenization as is done in Rimbara et al, 2005, and Noguchi et al., 2007, respectively.
- the length of the amplicon which is amplified in the second reaction of the nested PCR in Rimbara et al, 2005, and Noguchi et al., 2007, is too long to be sensitively detected in real-time PCR.
- the length of the amplicon amplified by the inner primers of the present invention is 143 bp while in Rimbara it is 463 bp and in Noguchi it is 367 bp.
- Fontana et al., 2003, JP 2005168474 , and Booka et al., 2005 are not directed to a nested PCR reaction and consequently the primers disclosed are not compatible with nested reactions without modification.
- the length of the amplicon amplified in Fontana et al., 2003 is 991 bp and is thus too long to be detected in real time PCR.
- Fontana et al. are amplifying a different region of 23S rRNA gene than Noguchi et al. Therefore, it is clear that the prior art is teaching that there are alternative regions in 23S rRNA which are suitable as target regions for a PCR based detection of the presence of Helicobacter strains.
- the primers seem not to be specific to Helicobacter but may also cross-react with Campylobacter strains.
- the invention is as set out in the claims.
- the present dislcosure provides a method of detecting H. pylori DNA in a stool sample, the method comprising the steps of:
- the present disclosure also provides an oligonucleotide primer set comprising an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein the oligonucleotide primer set amplifies a target sequence in the 23S rRNA gene of H. pylori.
- the present disclosure is further directed to a kit for detecting H. pylori DNA in a stool sample, the kit comprising the oligonucleotide primer set as described above; and a reagent for performing amplification of a nucleic acid in a PCR reaction.
- a "target sequence" present in a nucleic acid sample is a strand of H. pylori DNA to be primed and extended by a "primer".
- a target sequence may be either single-stranded or in a duplex with its complementary sequence.
- a target sequence may not be present in a nucleic acid sample, but may be present later as a result of transcription from another nucleic acid present in said nucleic acid sample.
- Target sequences may be from any number of sources based on the purpose of the assay being carried out.
- Target sequence of the present invention is purified to some degree prior to the amplification reactions described herein.
- oligonucleotide refers to any polymer of two or more of nucleotides, nucleosides, nucleobases or related compounds used as a reagent in the DNA amplification methods of the present invention.
- the oligonucleotide may be DNA and/or RNA and/or analogs thereof.
- the term oligonucleotide does not denote any particular function to the reagent; rather, it is used generically to cover all such reagents described herein. Specific oligonucleotides of the present invention are described in more detail below.
- an oligonucleotide can be virtually any length, limited only by its specific function in the DNA amplification reaction.
- Oligonucleotides of a defined sequence and chemical structure may be produced by techniques known to those of ordinary skill in the art, such as by chemical or biochemical synthesis, and by in vitro or in vivo expression from recombinant nucleic acid molecules, e.g., bacterial or viral vectors. Oligonucleotides may be modified in any way, as long as a given modification is compatible with the desired function of a given oligonucleotide. One of ordinary skill in the art can easily determine whether a given modification is suitable or desired for any given oligonucleotide of the present invention. Modifications include, but are not limited to base modifications, sugar modifications or backbone modifications.
- oligonucleotides for the present invention depend on their function as described below, several variables must generally be taken into account. Among the most critical are: length, G/C content, melting temperature (Tm), Gibb free energy (G), specificity, self-complementarity and complementarity with other oligonucleotides in the system, polypyrimidine (T, C) or polypurine (A, G) stretches, and the 3'-end sequence. Controlling for these and other variables is a standard and well-known aspect of oligonucleotide design, and various computer programs are readily available to screen large numbers of potential oligonucleotides for optimal ones.
- PCR amplifying or "PCR amplification” refers generally to cycling polymerase-mediated exponential amplification of nucleic acids employing primers that hybridize to complementary strands, as described for example in Innis et al, PCR Protocols: A Guide to Methods and Applications, Academic Press (1990 ).
- Devices have been developed that can perform thermal cycling reactions with compositions containing fluorescent indicators which are able to emit a light beam of a specified wavelength, read the intensity of the fluorescent dye, and display the intensity of fluorescence after each cycle.
- the amplification product contains a sequence having sequence identity with a target nucleic acid sequence or its complement and can be detected with, for example, an intercalating dye or a detection probe having specificity for a region of the target nucleic acid sequence or its complement.
- the PCR reaction of the present invention is preferably performed as a real-time PCR assay.
- the term "probe” refers to any of a variety of signaling molecules indicative of amplification.
- SYBR® Green and other DNA-binding dyes are detector probes.
- Some detector probes can be sequence-based, for example 5' nuclease probes.
- Various detector probes are known in the art, for example TaqMan® probes (See U.S. Patent No. 5,538,848 ).
- the melting temperature, Tm, of the probes can be increased by addition of modified nucleotides.
- the amount of modified nucleotides in one probe is 1, 2, 3, 4 or more.
- the modified nucleotide can be a LNA nucleotide (Exiqon A/S), minor groove binder (MGBTM), SuperBase, or Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA) or any other modification increasing the Tm of the probe.
- H. pylori DNA is present only in low level in feces, since H. pylori is an upper intestinal track pathogen. Therefore, the right choice of highly specific and sensitive primers is of crucial importance in order to obtain accurate results from a PCR based assay using DNA template isolated from a stool sample.
- the present invention provides a method and an oligonucleotide primer set for amplifying at least one target sequence of the 23S rRNA gene of H. pylori.
- the developed assay can detect H. pylori infection with high sensitivity and simultaneously evaluate clarithromycin resistance.
- the effect of the invention is particularly related to the choice of target sites for the outer primers, i.e. SEQ ID NOS: 1 and 2.
- the present disclosure is directed to a method of detecting H. pylori DNA in a stool sample, the method comprising the steps of:
- One of the most preferred embodiments is to perform steps a) and b) of the method in a single vessel (e.g. as described by Strauss et al., 2000). This approach lowers the risk of contamination.
- the melting temperatures of the first and second oligonucleotide primer set must be designed so that the temperature difference between the sets is at least 3 degrees centigrade, preferably 3.5 or 4 degrees centigrade.
- the target sequence in H. pylori 23S rRNA gene for the first oligonucleotide primer set consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 1 and 2 corresponds to positions 1937-2793 of SEQ ID NO: 13.
- the target sequence in H. pylori 23S rRNA gene for the second oligonucleotide primer set consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 3 and 4 corresponds to positions 2482-2624 of SEQ ID NO: 13.
- the detection of H. pylori DNA in the stool sample when the H. pylori-specific target sequence is amplified is performed using a DNA chip, gel electrophoresis, a radiation measurement, a fluorescence measurement, or a phosphorescence measurement.
- a person skilled in the art may use the primers and probes of the disclosure also in other methods and platforms utilizing PCR.
- the present disclosure also provides an oligonucleotide primer set comprising an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein the oligonucleotide primer set amplifies a target sequence in a 23S rRNA gene of H. pylori.
- the oligonucleotide primer set comprises or consists of the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2.
- the oligonucleotide primer set further comprises an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3 and an oligonucleotide consisting of at least 10 contiguous nucleotides present in a nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4.

- said oligonucleotide primer set comprises or consists of the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 7 and the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 8. Most preferably, said oligonucleotide primer set further comprises or consists of the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5 and the nucleotide sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.
- the present disclosure is also providing a kit for detecting H. pylori DNA in a stool sample, the kit comprising at least one of the oligonucleotide primer sets as described above; and a reagent for performing amplification of a nucleic acid in a PCR reaction.
- said reagent is selected from a group consisting of DNA polymerase, dNTPs, and a buffer.
- the aim in the design phase was to develop a highly H. pylori specific PCR that would not amplify other closely related species.
- the new assay is developed and optimized using sequencing confirmed H. pylori strains with and without clarithromycin resistance mutations.
- analytical specificity was tested against 50 clinically relevant pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacterial species, including both gram-negative and gram-positive species. No significant cross-reactivity was detected.
- the analytical sensitivity with 95% confidence for positive replicas was 10fg, which corresponds to two genomic copies or one bacterium.
- the clinical sensitivity and specificity were analysed using gastric biopsy, histology and Helicobacter culture with antimicrobial susceptibility testing as a golden standard reference method. Correct identification was achieved in 94% of samples and a correct antimicrobial susceptibility in 90% of a total 80 patient samples studied.
- As a control a template from Oryza sativa, terminal flower gene Ory, was used.
- the total nucleid acids were extracted using bioMerieux NucliSens Kits, and semi-automated easyMAG instrument for extraction. Both generic and specific B protocol was successfully tested. The specific B protocol was slightly better in qPCR performance, and it was selected for all experiments. A loopful of stool, app. 10% solution, was inoculated into 2mL of the kit lysis buffer, mixed rigorously for 5s and incubated at least 15min in room temperature according to manufacturer's instruction. The extraction volume was 25 ⁇ l.
